Learning is a lifelong imperative for all scientists. In this sequel to their 2007 contribution to the series, Erren et al. distil mathematician Richard Hamming's advice on how to remain motivated to learn into Ten Simple Rules.

solutions from the field of computational biology against Ebola, the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) announces a prize for an important computational advance in fighting the Ebola virus.

Grid cells are believed to form a part of the neural circuitry underlying the brain’s internal representation of space in all mammals. Dunn et al. evaluate pairwise correlations between these cells, and study their functional connectivity.

From humans to social insects and bacteria, decision-making is often influenced by some form of collective signaling. Pacheco et al. investigate how such signaling systems evolve when collective action entails a public good, and how meanings co-evolve with individual choices, given Nature’s most prevalent states.

Karanicolas et al. describe a novel computational approach to exploring the ensemble of surface pockets accessible to each member of a protein family, and show that this can be used to predict those family members with which a given ligand will interact.
